TALLAHASSEE, Fla. (WTXL) — Tropical Storm Bret, the second storm of the Atlantic season, is entering a phase of weakening this weekend.

Bret is less than 200 miles east-northeast of Curacao and is moving to the west at 18 mph.

Its highest winds are estimated at 50 mph late Friday night.

The expected conditions ahead of Bret favors more weakening. An active upper wind pattern in the western Caribbean is disrupting Bret's organization, and weakening is projected over the weekend in the central Caribbean.

Bret will not cause a threat to the Gulf region.
